First put the large number inside the division bar and the smaller
number outside
For Example: 895 ÷ 15
8 9 51 5

Now try to divide the number in the hundreds and tens column (89) by 15: In this case, the closest multiple of 15 is: 5 x 15 = 75
8 9 515

Now try to divide the number in the hundreds and tens column (89) by 15: In this case, the closest multiple of 15 is: 5 x 15 = 75
8 9 515
The 5 is placed in the tens column directly above the 9
5

Now try to divide the number in the hundreds and tens column (89) by 15: In this case, the closest multiple of 15 is: 5 x 15 = 75
8 9 515
The 5 is placed in the tens column directly above the 9
5
The 75 from 5 x15 = 75 goes directly below the 89 -7 5

The 5 is placed in the tens column directly above the 9
5
The 75 from 5 x15 = 75 goes directly below the 89 -7 5
1 4The remainder, the difference between 89 & 75, goes under the 75

The 75 from 5 x15 = 75 goes directly below the 89 -7 5
1 4The remainder, the difference between 89 & 75, goes under the 75
The number from the units column is then dropped down next to the 145
